How many monsters are there?
118 altogether. Each of the eight town types can raise seven types of creatures, and each creature generator can be upgraded to produce stronger creatures. In addition, two new golems (gold and diamond) make their appearance, and are joined by the four familiar elementals (earth, air, fire and water). Some HEROES II creatures will not appear in HEROES III. Peasants, sprites, druids, phoenix, ghosts and many others have been replaced by newer, more fantastic creatures. The ever- popular dragons will return in greater numbers (there will be six types including the upgrades), but will no longer be the toughest creatures around – so say the Arch Angels.
